Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Also Works:
Casual Formal

With its long-lasting performance and strong sillage, this scent demands attention, making it less suitable for office environments. Its dark, sensual character and boozy undertones are perfect for a memorable date night or an intriguing formal event. While it can be worn casually, it feels more at home in the evening.

About

SM Café opens with a potent blast of dark, roasted coffee, intertwined with a rich, worn leather and a hint of smoky tobacco. As it develops, a boozy maraschino cherry note emerges, adding a syrupy sweetness that is balanced by earthy patchouli and a touch of waxy beeswax. The dry down settles into a sensual blend of cedar, amber, and suede, maintaining a captivating, slightly illicit allure.
